Basic detection of x band electron spin resonance signal using stripline resonator

In this work, the basic detection of electron spin resonance (ESR) signal by using stripline resonator was demonstrated. The signal was detected by using a basic homemade ESR setup, stripline resonator and a sample known as 2,2-diphenyl-1- picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). Two types of stripline resonators wer...
